TechArt Formula wheel

Hello everyone,

I'm about to make an offer on a Pcar and it has the following wheels in 19".



What can I sell these for? Thanks everyone.

That's a toughy. First you've gotta find that someone who isn't aware just how heavy these things are. Maybe leave the price open for offers....work from there..

You need to find the right buyer: blind (will not see the unattractive wheels), strong (will not notice the weight), and owns a wide-body Porsche. TechArt makes some of the best stuff for our cars but I am obviously not a fan of their wheels because they are as expensive as the good monoblocks without any of the performance benefit.

Assuming the wheels are in good condition, I think you might get $1,000 out of them because of the TechArt name. It will take a specific buyer and require a wide audience so a place like eBay might be required. I can't tell for certain, but the photo looks like there might be some curb rash and that would make the wheels about worthless. My advice is to assume the wheels are worthless when negotiating your price. Try to get the seller to hassle with selling the wheels.

Thanks for the responses guys... Im personally NOT a fan of these wheels either and by having these wheels on the car will prevent me from wrapping up the deal. I guess I will keep hunting.

While I do not like the wheels, I would not let them get in the way of an otherwise good car since they are so easily changed.
